Thanks! i had to cut 3mm of the sides of the clutch and brake pedal, drill a hole and bolt the cover on.. with the ef accelerator pedal i had to trim 1mm or so around the edge and cut about 20mm off the bottom, i drilled out 1 of the rubber knobies and screwed it to the plastic pedal.. |

Is that why it's crooked not really, i think its because the bush between the pedal arm and base plate is missing, so it moves around a bit... i need to get another ef accelerator pedal that still has a bush in it.. |

i also took the car out to wsid for a cool weather run aswell.
ran consistant mid 13,s which im pretty happy with. although a high 12 would be better..lol.. i had the camera mounted to the passenger head rest, here are a couple of clips. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWtt6o5VZiY http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AwNO4A2n ... re=related since the photo shoot i have given the car a slight contrast change by changing the body strips from black to red.. as the black on grey was getting boring..lol Attachment: dsc_2138 small.jpg Attachment: DSC_2143.jpg Attachment: dsc_2141 small.jpg

last week i took the ed out to the v&e rigoli dyno day and pushed out 267rwkw@12 psi, which is still cosistant with the original power it made about 6 months ago, so after 6 months of every day driving, alittle thrashing here and there, a few wsid meets its still as strong and healthy as ever..
 here is another clip from the dyno day... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u7kC0dbbqUE |

Congrats on the power figures Troyman, call me a dreamer but the two videos of you going down the strip were pathetically cool
 Im sure everyone would want to aspire to that.

Great work Troy. The pictures look sexual mate. Personally I am a fan of the grey strips on the side, but frankly speaking the car is a winner hands down mate. Good times at wsid as well.

Nice work there Troyman! Nice to see it laying down the same sort of power down the track, meaning you have done well in regards to making it reliable, and also in regards to your 1/4 mile times, good effort indeed!
Cheers ToranaGuy
